Public comments are requested on the 5-year update of the West Palm Beach Floodplain Management Plan, including its Action Plan, which recommends specific activities be undertaken to fulfill the City’s flood mitigation goals.  A virtual Public Meeting will be held via Zoom on September 21, 2021, 6:00 – 7:00 PM.

The Floodplain Management Plan Update has been developed by a committee comprised of the City’s Watershed Advisory Committee and key City staff members.  The plan has been developed using FEMA’s 10-step planning process:

1. Organize to prepare the plan                       6.  Set Goals
2. Involve the public                                             7.  Review possible activities
3. Coordinate with other agencies                 8.  Draft an action plan
4. Assess the hazard                                            9.  Adopt the plan
5. Assess the problem                                         10. Implement, evaluate and revise
